The World Golf Championships - Complete records

Only one WGC event is played outside the United States - teh HSBC Champions in Shanghai

The World Golf Championships

The Championships began in 1999 and since then, of all the individual and team events, 18 have been won by Tiger Woods, his last being the 2013 Bridgestone Invitational.

This record, considering the strength of the WGC fields, must be one of the most remarkable achievements in golf.
